    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Orthopedics
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Microbiology

    Background:

    • Tuberculous ostitis is a significant bone infection in young children.
    • Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for optimal outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the clinical, diagnostic, and surgical aspects of tuberculous ostitis in infants.
    • To analyze bacteriological findings and treatment outcomes.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 72 infants under 3 years old treated for tuberculous ostitis.
    • Evaluation of tuberculin and seroimmunodiagnosis for infection allergy.
    • Assessment of surgical reconstruction, drug, and functional therapy.

    Main Results:

    • Clinical and diagnostic data, surgical outcomes, and bacteriological findings were analyzed.
    • Infection allergy was detected in one-third of the cases via tuberculin and seroimmunodiagnosis.
    • Treatment involved radical surgical reconstruction, drug therapy, and functional rehabilitation.

    Conclusions:

    • Tuberculous ostitis in infants necessitates a comprehensive treatment approach.
    • Vaccinal strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis may be an etiological factor.
    • Effective management combines surgical, pharmacological, and rehabilitative strategies.
